I woke up to the sound of heavy downpour early this morning, which was unusual considering it's officially the start of summer here in the Philippines and the sun has been PMSing the past couple of days. I mean, really, really bad case of PMS. And what's worse, I'm stuck here at home while others are enjoying their summer vacation all over and out of the country. Double bummer.
But since it was Sunday today and the only thing on my itinerary was to go to mass, I went back to bed to enjoy the wonder that is laziness. I slept really late last night reading John Green's Will Grayson, Will Grayson that even eight hours of undisturbed sleep wasn't enough. But after almost an hour of tossing and turning and staring blankly at the top bunk of my double deck bed, I resolved to finish the book. There were just a few pages more to go so it wouldn't take me that long to finish it.
After a little over an hour, I closed the book to end my journey with Will Grayson. I'm not really in the position to say that it deserved a nobel prize or anything but the book was good while it lasted. It was probably the only literature that made me laugh like a hyena. After reading the book, I looked at the right side of my bed and a humungous pile of dirty clothes were hungry of my attention. And so it was decided. Laundry it is!
Probably one of the most tiring and least favorite errand for me is doing the laundry which is why, I can only do house clothes and underwear. Anything else heavier than that will be taken cared of by the laundry house. After such tedious work, I waited for my friends to call me for a lunch out again but I realized they weren't out until roughly around two in the afternoon so I decided to browse over my ebooks and found another one of John Green's entitled Paper Towns.
I read the book to pass the time while nervously looking at my cellphone every now and then to check if I had an invite from my friends. But I didn't receive any. So I decided to go to mass at around 4 so that I can have an early dinner (which will be my first meal of the day, again). After the mass, I went straight to dinner and then home again. I wanted to finish the whole book by the end of the day and I did. But I ended up crying afterwards. I found the book really disturbing in a way that it discusses different facets of human life that you can't help but think about all of it before going to sleep. Which is what happened to me. Damn them good books!

Day 31: The streak goes on
Today was less toxic but I wouldn't say my unlucky streak has come to an end.
I just spent the entire morning on the Internet which is what all single, 20ish female would do on a Saturday morning. Really, I'm just making an excuse to make my day sound normal. In my defense, it was sweltering hot outside that even of I had something better to do, I'd still stay indoors. The perks of having to live in a country near the equator. Yes, I still know my Science and Geography, apparently.
I was thinking I could just maybe go out for lunch with my friends but unfortunately, they had their rest day today, which means, they're also lounging indoors too lazy to go out. So I skipped lunch. And breakfast earlier too. No, I'm not on a diet or on a slow painful process of killing myself, I'm just too lazy to go out and eat on my own. Okay, I'm trying to cut on my expenses too. You know, jobless and all.
After endless Ellen youtube videos and an hour of talking my friend out of suicide (I'm gonna make a separate post on that), I finally took a shower and ran through all things I needed to do on an imaginary checklist in my head. The first thing on my checklist was to get my photos recopied. So I went to the mall where my roommate told me and to my luck, their printer broke so they can't possibly mass produce a meager picture of me. So I figured I will just move on to the next to-do task on hand. I went to my former employer to get my Certificate of Employment, which I filed last Wednesday. And to my luck again, it wasn't gonna be out until next Wednesday (which is partly my fault because I didn't ask in the first place).
So I decided to just find another store who has all their tools up and running and can possibly recopy my photos. When I found one, instead of having my photo taken, I just gave them my copy to scan, which turned out to be the worst idea ever because the picture turned out all distorted (at least that's how I see it). But I can't afford to pay anything more so it would have to do. At least one box on my checklist is done. Next thing to do was to have some of my documents photocopied, which thankfully, I didn't have a problem with. So I went home with one box unchecked on my checklist. Not bad.
P.S. I'm probably gonna be sleeping late tonight. I have a date with John Green and his fictional character, Will Grayson.

Day 30: Ran out of Luck
Well, today was, for the lack of better term, painful.
I started the day lazily. I preferred to stay in bed instead of finishing my requirements. My scheduled orientation was to be this afternoon but it was clearly stipulated that no one will be allowed in the orientation if they haven't finished their medical exams yet and as you all know, I haven't finished mine because of physiological reasons. I had to wait until 10 in the morning and called the recruiting office to ask if I could still get in with lacking requirements. They told me it's fine, I just have to attend it since it was a prerequisite before I can join the training. So I decided to just stay at home and wait until 1 in the afternoon.
I was already back in my bed checking social networking sites when my former teammates called me again and asked me if I could join them for lunch. I wanted to but again, I was feeling too lazy so I politely told them no. And you wanna guess what they replied? One of them threatened that if I don't go with them, they would block and unfriend me on Facebook. Of course, I know they wouldn't do that but it definitely changed my mind. They told me I had 20 min to be there so I hurriedly dressed, fixed myself and went straight out of the house. Ugh, the things you do for your friends!
They were already waiting for me when I arrived and they just laughed at me. Can you believe them? So anyway, we had lunch at this place I've never been to. While waiting for the food, I was deciding whether I should go to the orientation or I could try my luck at another company which, my friends told me, offered the same account but with bigger compensation. In the end, I decided to test my luck. I went to the said company and processed my application. I had to take a very long and migraine-inducing exam for them to know which account I would be profiled to. After the exam, they told me I passed however I would not be profiled to the account that I wanted. I had to hold back my frustration until I was out of the building.
I immediately racked my brains for any other possible options and the first thing that came to my mind was to go to the recruitment office of the company who hired me and ask if they could reschedule my orientation. When I went there, I had to make an alibi that I had an emergency that's why I wasn't able to come to the orientation. They told me I have to wait for their call on Monday to check if the class wasn't full yet and if they could still squeeze me in. If not, they had to push me to the next wave. I just hope I could still make it to the class, I can't afford to wait another week.
I went home and called it a day. My roommate and I had dinner and I usually bring my phone anywhere just in case someone important would call but since it ran out of battery, I had to leave it at home to recharge. When we came back, there was a text message from the publishing company where I applied as a copy editor informing me that I didn't get the job. I had to stop for a while and heave a sigh. It seems that my luck was not on a roll today.
It always hurts when you experience failure and being the person that I am, it's not easy to face failure head on. I guess some things are just not meant for you no matter how hard you try. But at least I can say that I tried and I wouldn't have to live on the what-ifs if I didn't. I just had to convince myself that it's just a bad day, not a bad life. I hope you're having a better day than I am.

Day 29: Friends worth keeping
As expected, today was exhausting beyond words.
I had my alarm set up at 5 in the morning since I need to have my medical examinations done early to prevent long queues. My alarm did it's job however I kept snoozing it until it reached 30 minutes past 5 and still I was not ready to get out of bed. And then my phone rang and I wondered who could be calling me at the wee hours of the morning. Of course, there was no other culprit than my teammates before who's inviting me for a lunch out. And so it was set.
Because of the unexpected phone call, I was now up in bed and I had no choice but to start my day. The medical laboratory where I'll be doing my tests was not familiar to me but the address sketch was pretty easy to follow. However, when I got there, I got lost. I had to check the sketch again and eventually, I found my way there. I was able to finish most of the required exams but since I'm having my menstruation, I need to come back three days after for the drug test and urinalysis. Even if I finished early, I had to wait for the doctor for my medical check-up. I was done by 10:30, which was also the time my teammates were getting out of work.
I rushed home to leave my Xray film and headed to where they were. I had to wait more than 30 minutes for them to finish but it was worth it. Being with them made me want to come back to the team badly but of course, I can't. I'm just very touched that even if I was not part of the team anymore, they still remembered to invite me. And it's always fun being with them. I could safely say they are the most honest friends I've ever had and I can't ask for anything more.
After lunch, I was still thinking about applying to that publishing company I mentioned in my previous posts and figuring I didn't have anything to lose, I went for it. I only had one interview but I needed to write an essay and complete a vey difficult test. I thought I was good in English grammar and literature but when I took the test, I have to conclude I am not even halfway there. I still have a lot to learn. They told me they needed time to review my answers so I'll just have to wait for their phone call. I just pray to God they call me as soon as possible.
I then went to BIR to get my TIN number. It was pretty fast however I had to walk under the scorching heat of the sun. I almost thought I was gonna have a heat stroke that even if it was still mid-afternoon, I had to go home and rest. Again, it was a long day but I was able accomplish a lot and I was able to spend time with my friends so it was all worth it.

Day 28: You're hired!
If yesterday was a long day, today was even longer. I can't even think about tomorrow yet.
I had to wake up early to process my clearance with my previous employer. They only allowed processing of clearance from 7-9 in the morning, which meant I had to wake up at around 6 to prepare. To tell you the truth, I hate waking up early in the morning. I can do dawn (like around 2-4 am but after that, I'm figuratively glued to my bed and it would take a considerable amount of strength to wake me up. I had to snooze my alarm a couple of times before I was able to convince myself I had to do it or else I would have to wait another week. So I reluctantly separated myself from my my bed and took a shower.
I thought it would just be a very short process but apparently, it was not. I had to go through a lot of departments which meant going from one building to another. Point in case, I didn't finish it by 9. I had to come back in the afternoon since one department was not available until then. So I decided to head home while waiting for my scheduled ops validation and then I figured I could just drop off at the department before going to my interview. Around one in the afternoon, the recruitment office called to cancel the validation, which totally ruined my whole plan. So I had to go back to the HR dept for my clearance and the one who is supposed to sign it was not gonna be available until tomorrow. Great. Just Great.
I figured I'll just print out my application letter for another company and head back home. When I arrived, I checked my phone and I had a lot of missed calls and a couple of messages. One was from the recruitment office telling me that the ops validation would push through and I have to be there by 3:30. I looked at the time and it was fuggin 3:15 already. WTF. I had to get dressed and leave as soon as possible. It's a good thing that the office is just a ten minute ride from my house. But still, you know how much I hate last minute changes.
Well,the good news is, I got there just in time and I was able to see my friend who referred me there. Another good news was that the scenario given to us was pretty much basic to me so it would be safe to say that I did well with the ops validation. And I got hired! We had to go back by 6:30 for the papers we need to accomplish before the orientation proper. Honestly, I'm not so sure if I'd take the offer. Contract signing is gonna be on Friday so I still have time to think about it. I'm really eyeing that corrections coordinator position in the publishing company I was planning to apply to. I just hope I make the right decision this time.

Day 27: No easy feat
Okay, I confess. I didn't jog today. I got too lazy again. Tomorrow, I promise!
Since my bed didn't wanna let go of me, I decided to finish John Green's An Abundance of Katherines. This is my third book of John's and I'm enjoying the journey so far. I think I still have one book waiting for me though before I move on to another author. After I finished reading it, I prepared to meet my friends. I gave them food which I brought straight from CDO and we had lunch together. We hadn't seen each other in almost a month and I really missed them a lot.
After lunch, I showed up for my interview but not to the company I originally planned. I went for my second option just for me to have a feel of having to go through the process of examinations and interviews again. I even hesitated to come inside the building because I'm not really familiar with it but I just can't chicken out anymore. It was a very long afternoon which started with an examination. I was pretty confident with the exam because I had general knowledge of the questions being asked. We also had a typing test and not to brag but I also kinda' aced that one too.
After the exam, we had to go through the first or initial interview. It was quick, just a couple of questions about my education and work experience, which I already had an answer prepared. Then came the final interview which took more time. A lot more questions were asked and I kept saying 'mostly', I had no idea why. The interviewer was also a little intimidating, I wasn't quite comfortable talking to her. But I passed, surprisingly. I thought I was already done but we had to take another exam which I really had a hard time with. They call it Versant and it was a series of tests to check one's English proficiency. I got really nervous that I mumbled and wasn't able to answer some of the questions right. God must have really pitied me because I passed the exam, again surprisingly.
Since it was already late in the afternoon and the queueu for the ops validation was too long, I was scheduled to come back by 3pm the next day. Ops validation is like the finale of all interviews wherein the applicant would have to go through a simulation of how they would handle a certain call and then the supervisor would validate if they are fit for the said program or account. I'm a little worried about that part because it would really suck if I failed it. That's just one more step before someone gets hired. I just hope I don't screw it up.

Day 26: Series of Unfortunate Events
Touchdown Cebu! The boat arrived really early today (around 4 in th morning, by usual is around 6), which is good since it departed an hour late. Yes, usually a boat ride from CDO to Cebu takes around 8 hours so a plane ride would be much more convenient since it's only less than half an hour but I'm in no hurry. Plus it's more expensive and the airport in Cebu is a little far away from my home that I would have to ride a cab and I can't afford to spend any more of my meager savings for that. So a boat ride for me was a no brainer.
My trip last night was a series of unfortunate events and it comes in three, they always say. And boy were they right. First, my carry-on bag malfunctioned while I was checking myself in. The handle which made it easier for me to carry snapped so I had to hug it with two arms for me to be able to carry it. How convenient! Second, when I reached my assigned bed which was in the lower deck (the way I liked it), someone already occupied it with complete beddings like they own it. And the worst part is, the occupant was not there so I had to settle my things in the upper deck. I waited for a while just in case they'd come back but no one came until I've already made up my bed. And the sad part was, she was an old lady and she can't possibly get up and down in the upper deck so I had to give up my bed for her. The third one happened when I woke up to brush my teeth. Just when I was about to finish, the water from the faucet stopped running. How am i supposed to wash all the foam in my mouth and toothbrush without any water?! I had to fugging spit everything out and wipe myself with a paper towel. And after I was done and the person next to me opened the faucet, the water was running back again. i was like, 'really?! really now'.
When I arrived at the house, I still had a lot of time to unpack and fix my things before I shower and go for a walk-in interview, which was my initial plan. But i moved it early in the afternoon since I got too lazy. So after I took my lunch, I printed my resume and went to the building where I was supposed to get interviewed. But guess what? I just walked right past it. Yes, you read it right. I got too scared and apprehensive that I just walked right past it without even getting inside. And then I went home. I got so frustrated and disappointed with myself, I think i'm getting depressed by the minute.
I just read through the rest of the afternoon and decided to become unproductive. I promised myself I would try again tomorrow morning. I even set up my alarm so that I can have an early jog before I go to my interview. Let's just hope I won't chicken out this time.

And after I was done and the person next to me opened the faucet, the water was running back again. i was like, 'really?! really now'.
When I arrived at the house, I still had a lot of time to unpack and fix my things before I shower and go for a walk-in interview, which was my initial plan. But i moved it early in the afternoon since I got too lazy. So after I took my lunch, I printed my resume and went to the building where I was supposed to get interviewed. But guess what? I just walked right past it. Yes, you read it right. I got too scared and apprehensive that I just walked right past it without even getting inside. And then I went home. I got so frustrated and disappointed with myself, I think i'm getting depressed by the minute.
I just read through the rest of the afternoon and decided to become unproductive. I promised myself I would try again tomorrow morning. I even set up my alarm so that I can have an early jog before I go to my interview. Let's just hope I won't chicken out this time.
